Abstract

In situ kinetic measurements on the rate of solid—phase epitaxial regrowth of silicon in a conventional transmission electron microscope are described. The data compare well with those established for the sane material by high voltage electron microscopy and by Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy. High—resolution imaging at the same time provides direct information on atomic mechanisms. It is anticipated that this will beccme a more highly developed procedure in due course, especially for studies of interface reactions.
